    The camera work was really something and Holden is as great as always. A pretty good western in general.

    For a girl who as a general rule hates westerns - this one is an exception. With an excellent cast that includes Eleanor Parker and William Holden it could hardly go wrong. This film will keep you thoroughly entertained and on the edge of your seat.
